This. It's like horse racing, where they have an hour pre-race show where they spend... maybe 2 minutes discussing prior races and the horses vs. 58 minutes discussing the girl with cancer who is the niece of the brother-in-law of someone with a 5% stake in one of the horses.

Show me the sports. And, while we're at it, show me the sports, PERIOD. Not JUST the selected events where Americans do well.

Deajah Stevens (2nd place 200m track) is hot as fuck. If you like chocolate.

I go into full colon clench when I hear the first few keys of soft piano music.

I'd like NBC to split up the coverage into two feeds - one for sports and one for human interest vignettes. Run the sports on NBC Sports and the HumInt on NBC (or fucking Lifetime, where it belongs). It's 2016 and we have 500 channels plus the internet - why can't we make this happen.
